  4. FY 2007 Proposal StatisticsNSF and CISE

  5. CDI ITR

  6. FY 2008 Budget = $535M, $8M increase over FY 2007 FY 2009 Budget Request = $639M, a 19% increase over FY 2008 American Competitiveness Initiative calls for NSF funding to double over next 10 years America Competes Act authorizes additional NSF funding, setting pace for doubling of the NSF Research and Related Activities account over the next 7 years Obama Effect?? CISE Budget and Budget Outlook NSF provides 87% of all Federal support for basic research in computer science

  7.  Communications and Information Foundations Algorithmic Foundations  Human-Centered Computing   Computer Systems Research Networking Technology and Systems  Information Integration and Informatics  Software and Hardware Foundations  Robust Intelligence CISE Organizational Chartand Core Research Programs Office of the Assistant Director for CISE IIS Information and Intelligent Systems CCF Computing and Communications Foundations CNS Computer and Network Systems CORE PROGRAMS

  8. Annually, 3 CISE divisions issue coordinated Solicitation for Small, Medium and Large proposals Issued in Summer for Fall submissions Most awards and funding come through this process Despite variety of other programs in which CISE participates Review and decision happens in core programs also Intentionally broad (less specified) to allow for creativity. More on CISE Core Programs

  9. Discovery Learning Infrastructure Elements of NSF Strategic Plan

  10. Discovery: Advance the Frontiers of Computing Core CISE programs Cross NSF Programs that serve specific goals or communities - CISE participates CAREER (for new faculty) – deadline in July, may be submitted to any core CISE research program Research in Undergraduate Institutions (RUI) (for faculty at undergraduate institutions) - may be submitted to any CISE core research program Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) – may be submitted to any CISE core research program CISE Contributions (1)

  11. Discovery: Advance the Frontiers of Computing Multidisciplinary program solicitations issued by CISE Cyber-Enabled Discovery and Innovation (CDI) – began in FY’08 Collaborative Research for Computational Neuroscience (CRCNS) Advanced Learning Technologies (ALT) Center-like programs (funding of several $M/year/project for 5-10 years) Science and Technology Centers Expeditions in Computing

  12. Pursue ambitious, fundamental research that promises to define the future of computing Investigators collaborate across disciplinary and institutional boundaries Catalyze far-reaching research explorations motivated by deep scientific questions Inspire current and future generations of Americans, especially those from under-represented groups Stimulate significant research and education outcomes that promise scientific, economic and/or other societal benefits Full Proposal Deadline: January 10, 2009 Expect 3-4 awards in FY09 FY07-08 Awards Understand, Cope with, and Benefit From Intractability Computational Sustainability: Computational Methods for a Sustainable Environment, Economy, and Society Open Programmable Mobile Internet 2020 Molecular Programming Discovery:Expeditions(Large Centers) New in FY08

  13. Involves all NSF Directorates Create revolutionary science and engineering research outcomes made possible by innovations and advances in computational thinking. Discovery: Cyber-Enabled Discovery and Innovation (CDI) New in FY 2008 • Seek ambitious, transformative, multidisciplinary research proposals within or across the following thematic areas: • From Data to Knowledge • Understanding Complexity in Natural, Built, and Social Systems • Building Virtual Organizations http://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/cdi/

  14. Conjoining of and coordination between computational and physical resources. Anticipating improvements in adaptability, autonomy, efficiency, functionality, reliability, safety, and usability. Systems that respond more quickly, are more precise, work in dangerous or inaccessible environments, provide large-scale, distributed coordination, are highly efficient, augment human capabilities, and enhance societal wellbeing Joint call for proposals Solicitation NSF 08-641 Due February 27, 2009 Awards up to &1M/year for 5 years CISE and Engineering collaboration - Cyber Physical Systems New in FY 2009

  15. New solicitation that covers areas that cut across the CISE divisions and that could benefit from intellectual contributions of researchers with expertise in a number of fields or sub-fields Invites small (<$500K), medium (<$1.2M) and large (<$3M) projects Eligibility – no more than 2 proposals per senior personnel Focus Areas Data-Intensive Computing Network Research and Engineering Trustworthy Computing Discovery: CISE Cross-cutting research programs New in FY09

  16. Rethinking how we store, retrieve, explore, analyze, and communicate enormous digital datasets Computation is data-intensive Demands a fundamentally different set of principles, e.g., based on parallelism Requires real-time responsiveness and high degrees of fault-tolerance Questions: How can we best program data-intensive computing platforms to exploit massive parallelism What new programming abstractions can exploit these capabilities? How can new designs support appropriate power consumption, human maintainability, and economic feasibility? How must this computing paradigm evolve to best support new data-intensive applications? Advance: Data-Intensive Computing

  17. Considers computer networks as complex, global socio-technical infrastructure Encourages researchers to reason about the dynamics and behavior of current and future large-scale networks and the interdependence among the physical, informational and communications technologies Promotes research in radical design in network architectures by building on the predecessor FIND Program Seeks to improve or enable existing or new classes of applications, such as multi-player games, virtual worlds, augmented reality and tele-presence. Advance: Network Science and Engineering (NetSE)

  18. Builds on its predecessor program – Cyber Trust Supports research and education activities that explore novel frameworks, theories, and approaches toward realizing a trustworthy computing future Seeks new knowledge about scientific foundations of trustworthiness – reliability, security, privacy and usability -- to inform trustworthy technologies Encourages researchers to explore the integration of hardware, networking protocols, systems software and applications through new security architectures. Seeks to explore trade-offs between security and privacy Encourages proposals in the area of usability Advance: Trustworthy Computing

  19. Learning: Build a highly competent and diversified computing workforce for the 21st century CISE-specific CISE PATHways (CPATH) to Revitalized Education in Computing Broadening Participation in Computing (BPC) NSF-wide programs Research Experiences for Undergrads (REU) Sites and Supplements Integrative Graduate Education & Training (IGERT) Graduate Research Fellowships Scholarships for Service NSF Strategy - CISE Contributions (2)

  20. Research Infrastructure: Support development and acquisition of research instruments that enable high-quality computing research CISE-specific Computing Research Infrastructure (Core program) NSF-wide program Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) NSF Strategy - CISE Contributions (3)

  21. Broadening Participation in Computing (BPC) CISE Pathways to Revitalized Undergraduate Computing Education (CPATH) Cluster Exploratory (CluE) CreativeIT Foundations of Data and Visual Analytics (FODAVA) High-End Computing University Research Activity (HECURA) Mathematical Sciences: Innovations at the Interface with Computer Sciences (MSPA-MCS) Multicore Chip Design and Architecture: (MCDA) NSF-NRI Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Fellow Supplements to NSF Centers in Nanoelectronics (NSF 09-016) Software for Real-World Systems (SRS) Other new CISE Initiatives and Partnerships(see www.cise.nsf.gov)

  22. CISE is about advancing the computing frontier Supportingoutstanding ideassubmitted by creative people in a broadrange of academic institutionsand organizations. Focus on high-risk projects with high-impact potential. Impact may be far in the future and/or long-lasting. Impact leads to new knowledge, maybe across multiple domains and sectors. Impact can create new economies and change societal behavior - not difficult to find examples. Back to Basics
